Here's the transformations for the final ligatures below. Click on the image above to see the drawing in more detail.


When combining shapes from two fonts, the final comp is called a "ligature". For this assignment, we were to create two ligatures using the first and last initials of our name as design elements. In the first ligature, we were to use one color and one font for both letters. In the second, we were to use two colors and two fonts - one for each letter. I tried to simplify as much as possible, respecting the proportions set up by each font's original geometry. The adjacency of the two letters created the magic.
